This hotel met all my needs. The room was comfortable, staff were professional in every way, and the hotel was well maintained and pleasant. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who was considering staying in the China Lake area for one night or many nights. Thanks to Best Western for offering quality accommodations at a reasonable price.

I recently stayed two nights here for the Petroglyph Festival. Loved the room! Great bed and pillows, frig plus microwave. The breakfast was to die for and I loved that they opened at 5am so I could get an early start! Scrambled eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy, fruit, yogurt, cereal, waffles, muffins, toast, hardboiled eggs, juice..it was all there and...

Thank you nickbranch2016. We are always looking to provide an excellent service to all our guest. We will see you again on your trip to Ridgecrest. Have a wonderful day.

The room had all the amenities I would expect from a mid-level business hotel. Comfy bed, small microwave, fridge, cable, and free wifi. The free breakfast was standard hotel fare: muffins, hard boiled eggs, 2-3 steam tray items, coffee, and juice.
Not much to choose from in China Lake, so Best Western is a good option. Photos posted in other...

Thank you so much Swo89. We are glad to be able to accommodate your needs. Thank you and we will see you on future visit. Have a great day.

Stayed here for a business meeting in town. Lobby was nice and the staff were very pleasant. However the bed was so so and the shower device to change the water from the tub to the shower did not work. I guess this is to be expected of an older property.

Mr. charliepc thank you for your feedback. We are doing renovations on the property and the rooms are on the list. The in room bathrooms will be going over remodel. Have a great day.

this is a very quiet and quaint community right next to the China Lake Naval Base. The employees are top-notch and very courteous and outgoing. Always eager to assist, this staff is a "looking forward to seeing again" staff. Kudos to the management team of this facility...they have a very good thing going on!!!

Last minute plans necessitated taking what room was available where for one night. Have concerns about motels with external doors, but that was pretty much all that was left in town. Have stayed at other BW so gave them a shot. Staff was friendly, helpful and concerned. From the parking lot it looked like a pretty blue collar clientele. However...

Hi Da K and thank you for your feedback. We are still going through renovations along with getting the best product for our guest. We are glad that you were accommodated they way you deserve. We will see you again on the next visit to Ridgecrest. Have a great day.

This is an old hotel, with lobby under construction during my stay in march.
Most important room was clean, but bedding is poor.
Breakfast is a simple good old Best Western quality.
During my stay in march next to my door the temporarily lobby, so a noisy night.

Hi Mr Holland, our lobby has since been done and it was just the start of our renovations. The rooms are on the list and we are always adjusting the breakfast to see what would be good. All suggestions are welcome. On future travels please give us a call so that we could accommodate your stay that would be best...

We stayed one night on our way to Bishop at the Ridgecrest BW. The inn is very nice with easy access from the highway and just south of the center of town. The outside looks very nice and the parking spaces are large enough you can park and still get out of your car or truck.
Our room was cozy...

Thank you again for your comments. The front was the first part of the renovation and there is still more to come.

This Best Western has very nice large parking stalls. The outside looks nice for being in the Desert and was vewry clean. Our room was back from the highway so the traffic noise was low but the noise in our room from the upper floor was quite loud. The decor was nice and the room was clean except for many...

Thank you 707clayg as we are going to be working on the instillation above bottom and top floor. It is part of our renovations that will be going on through April 2018. Also with your luggage we have no problem assisting you with your bags to your room. Just let us know. Have a wonderful day.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The room was clean, the staff were friendly and helpful. The continental breakfast was one of the best we've had. A big thank you to Jim for the route guidance to Death Valley, saving us a great deal of time over a different route which had been suggested to us!!!
